William Melnick helped his team muscle past the Havana Sugar Kings, 8-3. In the game, the Kyiv first baseman went 3-3 with 2 doubles and 2 walks. He scored 3 times. The winning pitcher was 37-year old left-handed pitcher Dave Reed. He tossed 108 pitches over 6.2 innings, allowing 2 runs on 5 hits. Kyiv, now 54-66, holds down last place in the Federation League Knuckleheads Division.

Steve Buffington, who was drafted in the 2nd round of the 2040 draft, took Havana hurler Tylor Nicolia deep in the bottom of the first. His 2-run home run put the Cossacks on top, 3-1. In all, Buffington had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 5.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Melnick.
